Pumpkin Patch
Released at Fibre Flurry 2011: This pumpkin vine inspired shawl is formed from three identical triangular panels worked from the top-down, with eyelet increases. The hem combines a mist drops pattern with Estonian lace techniques and is made denser by changing from a 5 ply to an aran yarn. The shawl could alternatively be knit entirely in 5ply or lighter for a larger and more ethereal garment. Instructions are charted with full written explanation. This pattern is rated as moderately easy, as it contains a large portion of stocking stitch and most wrong side rows are worked as the stitches present. Some concentration is required for the lace edging. Additional skills required are: provisional cast-on, double and treble yarn-overs, right twists.
MATERIALS
Long (120cm) 4mm circular needles or as required to achieve the tension
100g/ 262m Adore by Sweet Clement (shown in Maple)
100g/ 280m Rowan Kid Classic (shown in Dark Orange shade 827)
At least 3 stitch markers (to fully demarcate all the pattern repeats 21st markers are needed but these are not a necessity)
4 stiff lace wires and at least 52 pins
TENSION
21st x 28r = 10cm/ 4 inches over stocking stitch pre-blocking (15st = 10cm/ 4 inches over stocking stitch after-blocking)
Achieving exact tension is not vital but will affect the amount of yarn used and the final size of the garment.
DIMENSIONS
One Size. 137cm (54”) span by 81cm (32”) deep.
